My favorite looking 991 so far, but that ain't saying much, LOL.

This car could be a home run if rear seats were indeed an option. Like this...

IMO it doesn't, I see no mention of additional (GT3) production...

Normal 911.2 GT3 manual dosent have this "function"? Or its the same gearbox?
yes it does, and yes it does ... its auto-throttle blipping in sport mode for downshifts

The R premium is toast -- a great 200k car which is what it has been from the start.

Will be an amazing car. To me I'd go regular GT3 all day. But if they had made this a separate model allocation wise I'd do it if it was the only option.
Don't like that it forces you to stay with the chrome theme and non-black headlights either.
But they know their market, and enough people craved the R and seems like the same demand here.
